ABSTRACT:
A cropping mechanism for a surface mount machine is disclosed which cuts the feed tape supplying electronic components. The displacement of an actuator in one direction between end positions cycles the cropping blade from a start location to the cutting location and back to the start location. The actuator has a cam which rides in selectively configured slots defined in opposed, pivotally supported levers which support a pin received by the cutting element and controlling its displacement.
